The Everflyht Brut NV reflects the current estates planting which combines Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Meunier; Hand-picked from their single estate vineyard and created in a low intervention method while using steel new and old oak to bring the best from each variety and block. Fresh and generous complexity in style, this traditional method wine has been aged for 20 months on the lees bringing a robust depth with a lasting elegance to the wine.
VINTAGE
A mixed season but in the end the quality shone though, bud burst was normal in time, mid-April and was largely unaffected by frost. Flowering was positive with warm bright days during July and August. Veraison was in full flow by September which was cooler than normal this allowed for a longer and gentle ripening period which gave the grapes time to gain a fantastic phenolic ripe profile that come harvest would translate into this elegant wine which reflects the the estates planting and vintage.
VINEYARD
Soil: Wealden Clay
Block Selection: Grapes were selected from four blocks of the vineyard, House Pinot Meunier block, House Chardonnay block, House Pinot Noir Block and Oaks Pinot Noir block
Harvest Date: 10th and 12th October 2019
WINEMAKING
The Pinot Noir and Meunier were co pressed and fermented together with the chardonnay pressed 2days later. The pressings were split between steel tanks, old Burgundy barrels (5th fill) and two new French oak barrels. These barrels make up 14% of the total blend the wine. The wine was fermented in barrel and then aged for 10 months before blending in August 2020.
APPEARANCE
Star bright, pale golden in colour with a gold hue.
Fine consistent bubbles.
NOSE
Generous aromas of baked apple and red apple skin with bright lemon notes. Undertones of strawberry and raspberry are followed by complexity and depth rounding off the profile with fresh biscuit and baked shortbread.
PALATE
A precise backbone and bright acidity give’s this wine an elegance and finesse. This structure is perfectly complemented by ripe red apple, pear and buttery lemon tart and a mix of red summer fruits. Bready brioche and hints of fresh biscuit form the profile edge. The crisp acidity gives the wine structure and poise with an elegant well-balanced finish.

New & Exciting
There are very few wine shops as good as Butlers, years of buying wines from them. There is always something new & exciting to pick out off the shelves and if you’re in any doubt the advice is considered and insightful.

Brilliant Butlers!
Words can't express the brilliance of Butlers or the thoughtfulness, expertise and compassion of their team! Whilst packing up to move internationally a friend died and I needed to organise an emergency case of something luscious to support the wake. Not only did their wonderful team organise and deliver within an incredibly tight deadline they drafted a message for me too which I approved. Wonderful!!

Sourcing Stock
Henry and Team managed to locate some difficult to find American wine which they kindly offered and I gratefully accepted. They truly differentiate by being able to surprise by sourcing stock very much outside the run of the mill.

Great Wine/Spirit shop with knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff
This was my second visit to Butlers Wine Cellar and on both occasions the service has been wonderful. The young lady assisted me and my wife on a number of purchases of wine and sherry and seemed very knowledgeable and made us feel welcome. Having tasted them she was spot on with her comments on each bottle. I would highly recommend anyone to use this shop.
